‎Manchester City has thrashed Crystal Palace 3-0 to climb back to within two points of Premier League leaders Arsenal

‎Pep Guardiola’s men braced for a tough task at Selhurst Park against high-flying Crystal Palace, and Oliver Glasner’s side was the more dangerous team in the first half.

‎However, Palace failed to take their chances, with Yeremy Pino hitting the crossbar with only goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma to beat.

‎Palace again started the second half brightly but could not break through and paid the price when Phil Foden swept home from a distance after receiving the ball from Rayan Cherki.

‎City made certain of the three points when Erling Haaland thundered a penalty past Dean Henderson after Savinho was taken down by the goalkeeper, following a surging run down the middle, late in the game.

‎Elsewhere, Nottingham Forest demolished Tottenham 3-0, while Sunderland saw off local rivals Newcastle 1-0 thanks to a Nick Woltemade own goal.
